After 50 years, I filed for divorce. I had had enough. We’d grown distant, and I was suffocating. The kids were grown, so I was ready to go. Charles was crushed, but I fought for my new life at 75. After signing the divorce papers, our lawyer invited us to a cafe—after all, we ended things amicably. But when Charles once again decided what I would eat, I snapped.
“THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I NEVER WANT TO BE WITH YOU!” I shouted and walked out.The next day, I ignored all his calls. Then… the phone rang, but it wasn’t him. It was our lawyer.
Me: “If Charles asked you to call me, then DON’T BOTHER.”
Lawyer: “No, he didn’t, but it’s about him. Sit down. This is bad news. Your ex is—”
I sat down on the edge of my bed. My chest suddenly felt tight.
“Your ex is in the hospital. He collapsed yesterday, just after you left. Stroke. It’s serious.”
I didn’t say anything for what felt like a full minute. Just blinked at the wall. The last thing I had said to him—screamed at him—was basically “you ruined my life.”
